Red faction: Guerilla Playstation3 Game

Lured by the rich veins of Martian ore, miner Alec Mason arrives on Mars hungry for a new life. But the promise of a brighter future for Mason quickly fades. The Earth Defense Force, once protectors of Martian colonists, have adopted heavy-handed checkpoints and omnipresent armed patrols. As violence escalates, an underground resistance known as the Red Faction is swiftly gathering strength to combat the EDF. Mason's quest for a new life has become a battle for survival, and the fate of the planet now rests with him and the Red Faction.

Join the Revolution When citizens of Mars can no longer bear the injustice of an oppressive regime, the fate of the planet lies in the hands of Alec Mason and the Red Faction.

Features

Open World Guerrilla Warfare – You decide who, when, where and how to battle. Utilize guerrilla tactics, improvised weaponry, and modified vehicles to lead insurgent attacks on EDF targets. Launch attacks based on your own gameplay style, take on missions in any order you choose, or engage in destructive activities to weaken the EDF’s grip on Mars.

Strategic Destruction – Use destruction to your tactical advantage, setting ambushes or chain reaction explosions to attack enemy strongholds and permanently modify the game environment. Leverage fully-dynamic physics-based destruction to improvise on the fly: blow holes in a wall or floor to set an ambush or escape, take out a staircase to stop your pursuers, or drive vehicles through blown out walls.

Epic Sci-Fi Setting – Explore the huge, unforgiving Martian landscape, from the desolate mining outpost of Parker to the gleaming EDF capital city of Eos; then tear through the fully destructible open-world environments swarming with EDF forces, Red Faction resistance fighters, and the downtrodden settlers caught in the cross-fire.

Multiplayer Combat – There is no place to hide when you put your guerrilla warfare skills to the test in a variety of highly destructive multiplayer combat modes.

Rating: 4/5Good Game

This review is from: Red faction: Guerilla Playstation3 Game

Pros: Challenging Combat Game, Fun to Play, Graphics are okay.

Cons: Not suitable for beginners, It takes time to learn this game specially for those who never played the first. If you die expect to start at the beggining of the area. Amateur/Beginner Level should be Hard not A/B!

Rating: 4/5Fun game

This review is from: Red faction: Guerilla Playstation3 Game

Pros: Overall this is a fun open-world game. Controls are pretty solid though I had to get used to them. The Wrecking Crew mode is one of the most fun game modes I've ever played. Lots of gratuitous destruction to be had here.

Cons: Sometimes the respawn system when you die in single-player can be annoying because it'll put you back in a safehouse clear across the map. But you can take that as a opportunity to go somewhere else and cause even more trouble. I also kind of wish they'd come up with a different name for the Earth forces than EDF. How many times have we seen EDF in movies, games, and anime?

Other Thoughts: If you like FPS's, you'll have fun with this.

This review is from: Red faction: Guerilla Playstation3 Game

Pros: Best FPS series made for consoles. The controls have always been great throughout the red faction series. And the geomod engine allows for some awesome game play variations, tricks, and hidden locations.

Cons: Nothing worth writing about, spawn times and locations can be a pain sometimes.

Other Thoughts: Red Faction is the FPS other FPS should try to strive to be, unfortunately garbage like Halo is loved by the masses.

Rating: 4/5Cuato Lives

Pros: Nice open sandbox environment, good mission structuring in single player. Not just GTA on Mars. Single player is very robust. Blowing stuff up.

Cons: Save system is useless and super annoying. If you engage in direct combat, you'll die regularly - at which point the system will promptly save your game, death penalty and all (although admittedly the penalty is a mild morale ding and transport to home base halfway across the planet). Attn developer: the whole point of saving is a do-over. Even if you engage in guerilla-ish hit and run style sabotage, soldiers often spawn right on top of you.

AI of your guerrilla buddies is lacking and barely useful to draw fire away from you, much less actually take anyone down. You'll frequently find yourself in the middle of demolishing a building with a sledgehammer while they have a tea party in the middle of the chaos, three feet away from you, oblivious to their fate.

Other Thoughts: Despite the cons, I'm happy with this fun title. Save often. It won't give you a complete do-over but it'll save your demolition progress, which almost compensates for having to drive halfway across Mars to get back to where you were.

Rating: 1/5terrible

This review is from: Red faction: Guerilla Playstation3 Game

Pros: Not that many

Cons: The game play is slow, the graphics are not all that, it is basically like many other games just not as good as those. I spent 60 bucks on this at another store and now I wish I had not purchased this.

Other Thoughts: I would not buy this and I wish I could get my 60 dollars back.

Rating: 5/5Sweet

Pros: Smash and break everything!!! Not too cartoonie. Fast paced ONLINE action. Single player story line is tight. Backpacks and random weapon pickups make for nice kit customizations in game.

Cons: Multi player game selection could have been improved, kind of annoying that you dump out of games then rejoin new ones after a match. Not that many online gamers yet... Melee attacks are annoying at times...i.e spay a guy w/ 40 to the face only to be bashed and die while he lives...

Other Thoughts: It's been a LONG time since Red Faction's last installment...TG THQ came through
